Role of managers in agile has been discussed a lot. But role of managers in scaling agile implementations in large programs is still a challange for many organizations. This talk focuses on how managers can add value in scaling agile implementation and take up a lean agile leadership role. My talk will cover some guidelines from various scaling frameworks and some real world scenarios based on lean thinking.

Why one size doesnt fit all?  - Selecting scaling framework.

This session will focus on what are the aspects organizations should consider when they want to scale agile implementation in organization.  There are several frameworks out there like SAFe, LeSS, Spotify, and so on. what is it that organization is trying to achieve and how a systematic approach of scaled agile implementation can help the organization.

Attendees will be able to understand what aspects should be considered before organization decides to scale agile.  How to scale agile and when to do it largely depends on what organization is trying to achieve. Each organization is operating it in different way so there is no defined formula or framework that will work for all. But guidelines from this session will help the members to identify their needs and then take further action.  These guidelines can help the organization to successfully scale agile irrespective of which framework is selected.

• Where to start

• Which Framework should I select?

• Organizational changes

• Role of managers?

• Scaling communication

• Scaling engineering practices

• Implement the plan

• Grow and evolve

This session will be mix of talk, case study and experience report.
